Selecting your wedding bonbonnieres is often something that gets left off your never-ending wedding checklist because – to be honest – they’re quite faffy and seem less important than other big ticket items like your dress, the venue and your all important marriage license.
So if you’re having a last minute panic about wedding favors and need to get something together fast, then look no further. Here we sum up a couple of ingenious wedding bonbonniere ideas that you can action with a quick trip to Bunnings and some crafty bow-tying skills.
Wedding Bonbonniere
For Green-Thumbed Couples
Opting for a rustic, outdoor wedding that champions the natural greenery of your venue? Why not extend the theme to your wedding bonbonniere. You can find a wealth of adorable tiny succulents at your local garden centre and can customise how you house them by picking out equally adorable terracotta pots or even miniature terrariums.
Wedding Bonbonniere
For Foodies
Panicking about under-catering? Or wanting to make sure your family have extra snacks to keep them fuelled up for the dance-floor? Be sure to lock in an edible bonbonniere for your guests to devour into the early hours of the morning. We recommend checking out La Petite Tarte and Passiontree Velvet to find everything from scrumptious macarons and delicious bite-sized treats.
Wedding Bonbonniere
For Boozy Couples
If you were a bride and groom that organised the bar tab before anything else in the wedding, then you’re going to want to champion booze on your big day through bonbonniere. Check out these mini champagnes and customised gin bottles for inspiration.
Want to incorporate cocktails into your drinks menu AND tick off your bonbonniere? Take a look at Everleigh Bottling Co. They hand-make cocktails and beautifully bottle them up in single serves – allowing you to leave them at every place setting and really kick start the party! Archie Rose Distilling Co may also be worth checking out, what with their cute miniature tasting sets and all!
